Ends campaign on IR
Sanborn (groin) played in six games in 2025 before ending the season on injured reserve. He totaled 34 tackles and one defensed pass when healthy.
ANALYSIS
Sanborn joined the Cowboys on a one-year deal last March and began the campaign as a starter, logging 32 tackles over his first four games. However, he suffered a concussion in Week 5 against the Jets, missed Week 6 against Carolina, and then was limited to special teams in Week 7 against Washington before hurting his groin and landing on IR. Sanborn was never able to make it back on the field, nor was he designated to return. He's slated to be a free agent.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
Sanborn's career statistics are misleading in terms of his IDP potential. Through two years, he's averaged 64.5 tackles per season. However, the Wisconsin product has played 87 percent or more of the defensive snaps in only seven contests, notching 10.1 tackles per game. The linebacker projects to move into a starting role this year, meaning his weekly tallies should be significantly higher than the last two seasons. Although Sanborn may not post 10 tackles per game, he should be a high-floor IDP.
